The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.
MRO is an intermediate to advanced writing level original character, original plot X-Men RPG. We've been open and active since October of 2005. You can play as a mutant, human, or Adapted— one of the rare humans who nullify mutant powers by their very existence. Goodies, baddies, and neutrals are all welcome.

Unused subboards have been cleared out and their posts moved elsewhere, and the Avatars and Signatures subboard has been brought out to the main page and placed below Character Profiles and Archives. Enjoy!

we now have a guide to Past MOTM winners where you can see everyone who has won as well as their shrine with the click of a link also, should you be lucky enough to win MOTM you can find what to do next here
We are currently working on updating the options for skins.
New skins include: Clover Abyss Toon Reel Real Reel Patchwork (Check out what happens when you scroll your mouse over the board names!)
Coming Soon (keep an eye out): OdeToSlate
On the flip side of the coin, we are also planning to delete some of the skins, so we can make it a bit easier to search through them all. If you'd like to save a skin from the endangered skin list, post here.

Brand new skin: "Love Lee Eyes"
Updated skin: Clover (aka "Lucky Kat") has a new banner.
All of the new skins or newly updated skins listed above now have fancy new buttons that are clear so they go with any background color. (Thanks Ghost!) They also have had their faction colors adjusted so that they are easy on the eyes. (We can do that by skin now! Yay!)
All of the new skins also have unique images that appear when you scroll over the titles of the boards on the main page. In case you hadn't noticed.
(A special thanks to Jay for all the nifty codes to let us customize member group link colors and scroll over images depending on skin. *hugs*)

As you may have noticed, the Sbox is broken. That's why we have two.
From the sbox admin:
We are currently transferring the site to a new dedicated server. The previous server is already full. Hopefully with the new server this site can continue to perform better than before.
If your shoutbox is notworking its most probably due to the files being tranferred. Hope you can be patient. We are talking about space amounting to gigs in size here.
